It's hard to believe that it's been 6 years since I started the FreedomYachts.org forum. Since then we've had 805 members sign up who have posted 24443 messages in 5650 topics! If you can't find what you're looking for in here, you aren't looking very hard!

I personally host the forum on my account at pair.com, and I have no problem doing that. However, every 5 years I need to renew the FreedomYachts.org domain name. It's only $65 for 5 years, so I figure if I can get a few people to kick in $5 or $10, we'll cover it quickly. So, I created a web page which links to my PayPal account which allows people to donate to the cause. You can find it at:

The real Thanks go to you Geoff. As you said: it's you who created this forum, host it and put also your energy in it being it's webmaster.For us 805 members it is a wonderful source for information about our Freedom's and a opportunity to share info, insights and opinions.It is me who should thank you for giving this to us, not you thanking me for giving such a small donation. Being in Europe it's not likely that in the near future I can thank you in person and invite you to share a drink onboard. But should ever the occasion arise I will gladly do so.

Just now seeing this request, too. I certainly benefit from the wealth of knowledge here and would be willing to step up and donate next year! Huge kudos to you, Geoff, for all that you do to keep this site going!!!
